Becoming The Real Rich Daughter After Divorce Chapter 312 - The Empress was unkind

Chapter 312: Chapter 312. The Empress was unkind

It was true that Miss Li wanted to inherit the Yue Kiln, but the family she had married to was a ship-maker. It could be considered a large ship-maker in Jiangnan.
Her in-laws might not allow her to manage her family’s property after she got married. Why was her brother-in-law in such a hurry to act?
Moreover, what benefit did killing Miss Li at this time have for that brother-in-law?
Taking another ten thousand steps back, Miss Li really didn’t want to get married. She also wanted to take over her family’s business. The Yue Kiln was now a royal business, and she still had to trade with other countries.
The Yue kiln was ultimately lacking people. Her brother-in-law couldn’t become a head shopkeeper, but at least he could become rich and noble. Killing someone would cost him his life.
The more Qiao Jinniang thought about it, the more she felt that something was wrong. “You have to get the Ministry of Justice to properly investigate whether there was anything fishy about Miss Li’s death.”
Lu Chen said, “Of course. Don’t be sad anymore.”
..
Many women paid their respects in front of Miss Li’s mourning hall. They all felt sorry for Miss Li.
During the morning court session, a small portion of the courtiers claimed that they were ill and did not attend the morning court session. Although only a small portion of the courtiers were present, left Prime Minister Lin, Hong Yang, and other high-ranking officials did not attend.
Lu Chen calmly touched his jade ring and said, “Since these ministers are all ill, let them rest for half a month.”
Marquis an Yuan silently frowned. was this cheap son-in-law of his too ambitious? These were all great talents of great Tang. Even Prime Minister Lin could not attend the court due to illness, yet Lu Chen allowed them to rest for half a month?
Then wouldn’t the court and the World Be in chaos?
If not for the fact that the empress was his daughter, he also felt that the emperor had gone too far. The Empress had really meddled in politics. It was no wonder that the old ministers were so angry that the emperor did not give them a way out!
His son-in-law doted on his daughter too much. Even his father-in-law was panicking!
The Minister of Revenue was Lu Chen’s newly promoted official in the Eastern Palace, he came out and handed the draft regulations of the female official department to Lu Chen. “Your Majesty, these are some of the regulations of the female official department. There are also some laws that are already being discussed with the Ministry of Justice. It will take about half a month.”
Lu Chen took the book from the Minister of Revenue and looked at it. “Okay.”
The Minister of Justice came out and said, “Your Majesty, I have sent people to investigate the matter of Miss Li’s murder. Her brother-in-law has admitted to the crime.”
Lu Chen said, “Her brother-in-law should be executed by a thousand cuts. He should be executed on the day of Miss Li’s burial to comfort Miss Li’s spirit in heaven.”
“Yes,”the Minister of Law replied.
..
Marquis an Yuan returned to the marquis’Manor and sighed.
Zheng Xiao said, “Why are you sighing like this the moment you return?”
“It’s because of the Jinniang. She’s too bold. Yesterday, she interfered in politics at the Taiji Palace, but his Majesty indulged her. His Majesty went against those pillars of power because of her. You Don’t even know how many people are calling me a traitor!”
“I’m really wronged!”
Zheng Xiao said, “You are the Jin Niang’s father. Even you aren’t helping her?”
“Forget it. A treacherous official is a treacherous official, right? It’s just that there aren’t many colleagues in the imperial court who are willing to pay attention to me now. Sigh.”
Zheng Xiao said, “Don’t sigh too much. There’s a joyous occasion in the manor. The princess is pregnant.”
This was indeed a joyous occasion for marquis an yuan. This could be the eldest grandson of Marquis an Yuan’s manor!
Princess Fu Lu was pregnant, so Princess Shou an and the prince consort of Qin rushed to the manor and brought a few boxes of things.
Fu Lu looked at the boxes and smiled. “Father, mother, you brought so many things. Those who don’t know would think that your daughter is being mistreated in the manor.”
Shou an nodded at Fu Lu’s head. “You’ve been acting like a naughty monkey since you were young. In the Blink of an eye, you’re going to be a mother. In the future, you’ll have to change your good-for-nothing personality…”
Fu Lu hugged shou an and said, “Mother, does it hurt to give birth to a child? When I saw the empress giving birth to Ang ‘er, it hurt for an entire day… don’t tell me I’m going to be in pain for an entire day as well?”
Shou an said, “It really hurts, and it’s worth it. What mother regrets the most is that she risked her life to give birth to you back then.”
When Lady Qiao heard that Fu Lu was pregnant in the palace, she ordered people to bestow many things to Princess Fu Lu.
The marquis an Yuan’s manor had a legitimate grandson. When this news spread, some people began to complain about the injustice in the world.
“Miss Li’s body has not yet been cold because of the Empress’decree. All the women in the world have suffered a lot because of this decree that can take over the family business!”
“Exactly. The Li family’s parents rolled the board and struck the drum of ascending to the heavens. Not only did the emperor not punish the empress, he actually let the Empress Meddle in politics. Now, many old ministers are so angry that they have complained of illness and are not going to the court!”
“Who would have thought that the retired emperor would be wise for his entire life and actually choose such a muddle-headed emperor to ascend to the throne.”
In the teahouse, discussions were going on.
In a private room, a servant girl said to a young lady, “Miss, did you hear that? The eyes of the commoners outside are bright. They are all helping our Lord. This time, the Empress will definitely be punished!”
Miss Hong frowned and said, “Actually, I feel that the Empress’s decree is extremely good! It is said that women are noble, but civilian women have too many restrictions, just like the Dead Miss Li.
If she was a man, how could she be killed by her brother-in-law! !
The emperor and the Empress gave this imperial decree to seek the welfare of all the women in the world!”
The servant girl said, “But…”
“Father is also old and muddle-headed. This is such a good thing. Now that he is the imperial teacher, yet he instigates left Prime Minister Lin to call himself ill and not go to court. Does he really think that His Majesty is easy to bully?”? “Since retired emperor has given the throne to his majesty, His Majesty naturally has the ability.”
Miss Hong listened as the voices of righteous indignation in the teahouse below grew more and more. There were even some people who had been incited to create trouble.
The scholars wrote poems about the hen, Si Chen, to mock the empress for meddling in politics and the woman taking over the family business.
On the day of Miss Li’s funeral, the line to send Miss Li off was extremely long. Most of the people were scholars and there were many daughters of the government. Their father was one of the officials who had been dismissed.
A group of people wearing mourning clothes walked on the main street. White paper money danced in the air, looking extremely desolate.
“The empress is inhumane, the empress is inhumane!”
“The demon Empress is the one who should lead the way!”
Miss Hong heard her father’s last disciple shout the loudest, she quickly went out and said, “How can the empress be inhumane? The Empress seeks the well-being of all the women in the world. His Majesty is a wise ruler. They have done so many things for the women of the common people. What right do you have to say that they are inhumane!”
One of the daughters of an official family mocked miss hong and said, “Miss Hong’s father is a strong-willed and powerful official, but Miss Hong is so submissive! Miss Li was indirectly killed by the empress. You should let His Majesty depose the Empress!”
Miss Hong snorted coldly and said, “Depose the Empress and let you enter the palace for a talent show? Don’t think that I don’t know what you girls are thinking. Do you think that this will allow his majesty to depose the Empress?”
“You!”The daughter of an official seemed to have been hit by her thoughts. She stomped her feet and pointed at Miss Hong as she said, “Don’t talk nonsense!” If you find any errors ( broken links, non-standard content, etc.. ), Please let us know so we can fix it as soon as possible.
